[Q] Can't use anything but wifi, please help! - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I was playing with the *#*#4636#*#* menu in CMX and changed my band to Australia. I then lost all connectivity but wifi. I figured I'd just nandroid back to my fully functioning CMX - I was wrong. After restoring the nandroid, the phone still won't connect to anything but wifi.
I then saw this post and flashed meanbean to use the Sense dialer.
None of the instructions worked! When I try to ##786# reset all my data, the phone will do its thing and then boot back up into meanbean and ask me sign in to my accounts.
The DEVICE_PROVISIONED=1 doesn't exist in my build.prop as seen in this post so I can't use the simple method. :crying:
Any help is greatly appreciated. I only have wifi while I'm at work, so in 5 hours I'll be screwed.
EDIT: Almost fixed it! I nandroided back to CMX and tinkered with some more advanced settings. I figured I can't hurt anything more than I have. It's now connecting to the network and 3G, but says it needs activated. Finally, progress!

Seriously, I have no clue other than what I just read in the threads you posted. I hope you're able to get it figured out.

Thanks guys, I did get it fixed. Once I got some sort of connection reestablished I needed to activate the phone. I called Sprint customer service from my work phone and they refreshed all my data/connections. That allowed me to connect to the network, but not use it (if that makes any sense). I then downloaded the deodexed stock rooted JB ROM from here. After flashing that and booting into it, it said "hands free activation" and then starting updating the PRL before asking me to set up my accounts.
Hopefully my story helps anyone who gets caught up in this issue.
One more thing, upon reinstalling my cmx nandroid, I checked the build.prop file and it had the DEVICE_PROVISIONED=1
I changed it and that's how I got the phone to reconnect to the network (still no use of the signal though at that moment). That's when I flashed to the stock rooted ROM and everything was fine from there.

[Q] Can't use mobile data

I can't use any app with mobile data, except for dolphin browser. But i can't download anything with them. And in apps like whatsup, google maps, google play store etc. it just says no connection. But when i'm connected to wifi i can use them with no problem. I was looking in the settings but i didn't find anything to fix it. Anybody has some idea?
Thank you.
I had something very similar after flashing a new ROM, Im now on leedroid with no problems so It might be the rom you are using?
unrooted stock rom :/ everything is stock
Try going to settings/phone update/update profile and see if updating your profile helps.
I don't have phone update in the settings :S
Sorry....it should be System Updates
It says that I already have the latest version... but everything worked, I don't know why this happened.
could go into phone programming and reset your data profile
##3282#, edit mode, enter your msl number, data profile, menu, restore.
this code doesn't work for me
I have a dumb question probably, but mobile network is checked in wireless and networks settings right ? And the mobile network settings are right, domestic data and voice should both be checked.
If all that is correct then i would take it to or call sprint and let them fix it. Sounds like an error on their side to me since your phone is stock.
Of course the settings are correct, because I can browse internet. And everything has worked until few days ago.. i don't want to bother with factory reset and that stuff, i'll just wait for ics to come.. if then something won't work then i'll contact htc...
If you go to the phone dialpad, ##3282# doesn't work, then something definately is wrong with your phone.

I dont believe qpst is stock on the 3d. Can't remember tbh. Qpst is required to use ## codes.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
QPST does work on stock. Also, since I work for sprint I would recommend just doing a master reset since this is the first thing they will do when you take it in. Yeah it sucks having to set everything back up, but it will probably fix your issue.
I've just resetted APN's and everything works now!
But I still don't understand why was browsing working, and apps wasn't :S

I was just about to suggest that the APN's weren't correct, or to reset them, so maybe an apology to the person you told "Of course all the settings are correct" !?!?
Simple fix anyway, glad it's working.
If you ever have a problem like this in the future, chances are it's a phone issue, then a network issue then a rom issue, but ultimately a human issue.
Resetting the phone can always rule out the rom, trying another sim can rule out the rom, calling your network can rule out the network, i get issues like this on a daily basis, it's 9 /10 human error.
Oh an just a heads up, quite a few people tried to help you here and you said thanks not once?

[Q] Evo 3D GSM no mobile internet

I have an Evo 3D GSM the thing is I can't get the mobile internet to work, wifi and internet pass through is working. Tried different roms, different radios, apn settings, hence everything I could find worth trying, but no joy. My carrier says there is no problem from their end. I am pretty helpless now. So I request for some help here...
Currently my Evo x515m is running:
Android 2.3.4
Sense 3.5
InfectedROM Eternity
LeeDrOiD kernel
11.73.3504.00U_11.23.3504.09_M2 radio
Ping results from test menu:
IpAddr: Fail: Ip addr not reachable
Hostname(google.com): Fail: Host unreachable
Cliet test: Fail: IOException
Please someone help me out
No one?
Stay Calm Bro!!
When you said APN settings, did you mean you deleted the APNS which came with the rom and manually typed the settings of your network and maybe then rebooted to see if it worked??

Try going back to stock and calling your service provider and have them reset your signal.

I called them and they said it can be my sim card bandwidth issue so I have to personally visit them which I did and they said all is good from their end. Maybe its related to the newer radio I flashed or the rom or something.
Try reflashing your prior radio.

To be honest I don't remember which radio it had originally and have no backup(yes I know my bad) but I tried some GB based radios from this thread but no joy. For now I am back to 11.73.3504.00U_11.23.3504.09_M2

So your portable hot spot works with your laptop using your connection, but the data on the phone itself doesn't work? So you can't use the web browser or anything?

Can you point me where i can find some info on what ESPT is and what it does and what I can do to it? Google doesn't help me and suggests it as EPST, u did a typo or I am going wrong?
Nah your good it was me on a typo. My bad on that. Have you found the apk??
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\
I did find a few apks but I am hesitant to push any of it into my evo because in all the cases I have gone through they use it to get higher data speeds specially on sprint network. One, I am not on sprint and two, I am not having any connectivity at all. Ain't concerned about the speed yet. Can you be kind enough to guide me as to where I can find more info about this?
Btw thanks for taking out time and helping me out.
I have the cdma apk but I'm not sure if I works the same on the gsm. All the apk does is allow you to enter the diagnostic mode on your phone. The codes I posted earlier are codes/numbers you need to input into your dialer in order to access the diagnostic menu. Some roms have the newer apk that doesn't allow for the code to gain access so some well quite a few rom developer's include the older apk to allow the user to access the diagnostic menu. Make a backup of your current epst apk and place it on your sd incase you would like to revert. Then you can try out the apk you have found. Or you can download a gsm rom who has the older apk and extract it from there. This was what I was going to do just to be on the safe side because as I said I'm not sure if it's a difference between the cdma apk and the gsm apk. Then you can either push them to /system or if you have root explorer to can just c&p the apk and change permissions then reboot. As long as you have made a copy of you current epst.apk you can always revert back. Also as long as you have a nandroid you just restore.

No data on aosp builds

I've noticed few people like me having this issue. I have tried every cm and aokp/aosp Rom available. Every one gives me no data. I know it's related to the phone.android fc'ing. Every dev says it only shows up once, but for me it's every time the radio tries to connect. It's instant and immediately kills my data. I've done pretty much everything to fix it. Tried 3g only even, no dice. The only thing i can connect to is WiFi.
Who else has this issue? And does anyone have a fix? As soon as I'm back on a sense Rom, everything is great.

Wow. Ok then.....lol!
I have the same issue,I will sometimes get 3g, very hit or miss and no lte. I see 4g before the phone error pops up, then it's gone forever.

Yep, exact same problem here. What hw version are you? Also what hboot do you have? Son or off?

I had some data issues on AOSP ROMs as well, a ##786# reset solved them for me.
Flash a Sense ROM, input ##786# in the dialer, select Menu --> Restore (it's a factory restore), enter your MSL and wait for the phone to reboot. after booting, the phone will perform an OTA activation, just as if it was new. this method was the only one that got me 3G on CMX, though it may or may not work for you.
good luck!

I usually toddle data on/off and roaming on/off wile set to 3g only. This method almost always works for me. When I get a solid connection I then switch to 3g/lte and most of the time I can hold a data connection. Gotta say once I connect I don't lose data

##786# appears to have mostly worked for me. I still have occasional issues, but as stated once data is connected it holds for the most part. Thanks for the help.

[Q] 3g problem for my htc evo v 4g/3d

Hello. Im having problems with my Evo. 3g data isnt working. virgin mobile refused to help me because the guy i was talking to is either untrained or an idiot. but anyways i just activated my phone again after it was cancelled. i didnt have it activated for over 5 months or so so it got cancelled and i was provided a new number. before i activated it on virgin mobile again i was thinking of going to metro pcs for their 40 dollar everything plan. but didnt because i was unsure. I did change settings in qpst to match the settings of metro pcs phone settings/data settings and when i changed my mind i tried to flash it back to virgin mobile i messed up a lil and had to do the ##786#, menu, reset thing, to get my virgin mobile original settings back, so now the phone is activated but data is messed up. it dosent load pages or work period. the 3g arrows flash every once in a while but then stop. and i am on meanrom v4.5. just flashed back from jellybean the liquidsmooth rom. i am not quite sure what the problem is but i think the data settings are incorrect. when i go into ##data# settings in data profile it shows ""[email protected] . it seems everything else is mostly correct as far as i know. so if anyone can help me at all with data settings or anything else i would be very appreciated.and yes i tried updating profile/prl stuff and nothing. but thank you for any help at all.
Do a google search for flashing phones to virgin mobile. Does not really matter what phone the flash instructions are for as long as it is an android phone. Then compare the settings to the ones you have on your phone and make any changes needed.
Oh and next time before you change anything with qpst make a backup. With qpst you can read all the info from your phone then back it up tk your pc. Then if you ever need to go back you just open the saved settings and flash them over.

Ya I did that and all of the posts I found have outdated information. I called virgin and they told me to wait 24 hours and the problem will be fixed and that my programming information was correct. I'm not sure if they were telling me the truth or not but I had this problem before and switching to profile 1 fixed everything. This time its not working because profile 0 and profile 1 are exactly the same. I don't know what to do at this point. I was hoping someone with an EVO 3d or EVO V 4g working on virgin mobile could connect to qpst and give me pictures of their exact settings minus their account information and esn/meid numbers whited out. Since VM won't help me the only thing I can do now is ask for help from someone else.
seems like my 3g is working now. i flashed back to liquid smooth kit kat. wierd because i have used meanrom before on my account. so i guess it was meanrom messing things up. thanks tho.

WIFI Calling

So I did a restore using the LG tool and I am missing the wifi calling app. I can't seem to get it at all from any source, I've read some discussions about it but haven't gotten anywhere with it.
Anyone have some advice ? Ive tried all the ## diag numbers and all of that to try to get the sprint software to load but it doesn't load the WIFI calling app or any other sprint apps.
Can someone maybe provide me with the APK ?
Hopefully this helps!
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1605415/SprintWiFiCall.apk
I am not sure how to make this stuff active..I've tried every procedure possible on this to get it enabled. ##RTN# and nothing no Sprint boot or shutdown or Sprint apps including the wifi calling.
I'm not sure if it's a blessing or now I can't use any of those features anymore.

I've used the tool 5 times to get back to stock (things I've tried that don't work, never with the build prop except the multi window) and not once has all the apps installed. I.e. wifi calling. You must know your msl. Once you know that you're golden. Restore back to stock. Don't bother with downloading or really setting up anything. Go to phone, dial ##rtn#. Option 2 i believe, put in your msl and bingo. It will restart have you sign in again and all that jazz and whalla. Wifi calling and all the other Sprint bs is back. Have any questions please ask.
